Cherry blossoms are in full bloom across Japan, prompting the usual rush of impromptu picnics, but prices are surging for the traditional food items often enjoyed while admiring the flowers. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/business/2025/04/02/economy/hanami-food-costs/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #business #economy #sakura #japaneseeconomy #food #inflation #wages

Nao-san (and a number of cats) enjoyed an outdoor tea ceremony beside the blossom-festooned Philosopher's Path (哲学の道).

大川へ吹なぐられし桜哉
-Kobayashi Issa (小林一茶), 1804.

Continued thread
First opened in 1890 (lengthened in 1912), the irrigation channel that the Philosopher's Path (哲学の道) follows is fed by water from the Lake Biwa Canal. The 2km course (which takes about 30 minutes to walk) is lined with over 500 sakura trees.
